Information

Tree up to 10(15) m. tall, terrestrial or hemi-epiphytic and strangling. Leafy twigs (2)4–8 mm. thick, ± densely white puberulous to hirtellous, pale yellow hirsute on the nodes, periderm of older parts ± flaking off when dry. Leaves spirally arranged; lamina oblong to elliptic or ± ovate to subobovate, sometimes subcircular, 2.5–18 x 1–8 cm., subcoriaceous; apex rounded to subacute, sometimes shortly and obtusely acuminate; base cordate to rounded; margin subentire; superior surface puberulous to hirtellous, inferior surface densely hirtellous to subtomentose on the veins; lateral veins (3)4–7 pairs, the basal pair of veins not or faintly branched, usually ending at the margin well below the middle of the lamina, tertiary venation reticulate and prominent; petiole 0.5–4 cm. long, (1)2–3 mm. thick, epidermis not flaking off; stipules 0.5–1.5 cm. long, white to pale yellow subsericeous to subhirsute or puberulous, caducous. Figs in pairs in the leaf axils, sometimes also just below the leaves, subsessile; basal bracts c. 3 mm. long. Receptacle globose to ellipsoid, 15–22 mm. in diam. when fresh, (7)10–18 mm. in diam. when dry, densely white pubescent to sparsely puberulous, pinkish or purplish at maturity.
